CLASSIC POMMES BOULANGèRE - FRENCH GRATIN POTATOES



Classic Pommes Boulangère - French Gratin Potatoes image

This classic French potato gratin dish literally translates as "Potatoes in the Style of the Baker's wife". The story is, that in the past, a French family would prepare these potatoes and then take them to the local boulangerie, the baker, to be cooked in the even heat of his oven, hence the name. Any sort of good quality stock will do, chicken, lamb, beef or vegetable. For a richer taste, a ratio of 50% hot stock and hot milk/cream can be used. If using lamb stock, it is nice to sprinkle the top of the potatoes with fresh Rosemary, and I often add a sprig of thyme to my potatoes when baking them. I have found that melted butter gives a better result than dotting butter, no burned and upturned edges anymore!

Categories     side-dish

Time 2h25m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 medium Idaho potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced (1/8-inch-thick) on a mandoline, soaked in cold water, drained well and patted dry
2 cups heavy cream
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Caramelized Shallots, recipe follows
Fried Sage Leaves, recipe follows
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
9 large shallots, sliced into 1/4-inch-thick slices
Pinch of sugar
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup canola oil
10 fresh sage leaves
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • In a 10-by-10-by-2-inch casserole, arrange some of the potatoes in an even layer, drizzle with 3 tablespoons of the cream and season with salt and pepper. Repeat with the remaining potatoes, cream and salt and pepper to form 11 layers. Press down on the layers to totally submerge them in the cream.
  • Cover and bake for 30 minutes; remove the cover and continue baking until the cream has been absorbed, the potatoes are cooked through and the top is browned, 30 to 45 minutes longer. Evenly distribute the Caramelized Shallots and Fried Sage Leaves over the top.
  • Melt the butter in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the shallots and sugar and slowly cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and caramelized, about 40 minutes; season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat the oil in a small saucepan over medium heat until it begins to simmer. Add the sage leaves in batches and fry for a few seconds until crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon to a plate lined with paper towels and season with salt.
  • Cover and refrigerate the flavored oil to save for sauteing fish, chicken or pork chops.
